Sennheiser - Momentum Wireless (M2 AEBT)

I have a momentum 2 wireless (the first generation momentum they did wireless for), it's been a bit of a mixed bag. The sound is great, the microphone is decent, but the Bluetooth connectivity has done issues. I bought these right at the moment they pulled them from the market because their initial release has severe Bluetooth issues, I my order was on backlog for about 6 months before I got the fixed version, but they had to use a software patch for a problem with the Bluetooth hardware, it works but sometimes it has connectivity issues. Still in use after 10 years though 😁

The old sennheiser momentum 2 wireless are incredible and I've had and used mine for many many years. They come with a wire you can attach/detach. I'd probably buy those in a heartbeat if mine ever manage to break. Sturdy, great sound, controls have died on mine but they're not really needed. Comfort is decent for an hour or two but then they can get a bit uncomfortable.

TBF still on my momentum wireless 2s and while battery has decreased it is still very decent and I don't even remember how old they are

I don't think I've tried those particular Audio Technica ones, sorry. The one big issue I came across using headphones with Quad Cortex is to make sure you use a TRS (3-ring) jack and not a TRRS (4-ring). I tried my old Sennheiser Momentum 2.0s which have a 3.5mm 4-ring jack using an 3.5mm to 1/4" 3-ring adapter and they just screwed up the sound entirely. You might get lucky with some other make, but I'd just play safe and get headphones with a native 3-ring TRS-jack. I think the M50x has that 3-ring jack, so you should be good to go with those.

I’ve been commuting for the past 4.5 years with my sennheiser momentum 2s and they’re perfect. Solid build quality, look good, sound good, and have good noise cancellation. No issues with the battery or comfort either

Dont wear them to the gym or anytime you might sweat. I bought mine to play drums with and the little bit of sweat fried the circuit board. Sennheiser refused to help. Pretty sad since I love my Momentum 2s. I repaired the M4 only for it to happen again about 3 months later. I tried to repair them again and a ribbon snapped. They are great but theres no reason for the circuit boards to be mounted so low on the ear cups with zero sealant to keep even a little bit of perspiration away.

I like the sound signature on Sennheiser Momentum Wireless. I have the latest version and it's definitely the best so far. But out of the box most don't sound that great for Deathcore, but an app like Wavelet will make a huge difference 

For under $200 you can get incredible “audiophile-grade” wired headphones. Especially if you go for used. Wireless changes things though. I’ve tried all the popular Bluetooth headphones and they’re all pretty underwhelming, even in comparison to some $80 Grados. The Sennheiser Momentum line would probably be the only worthwhile wireless headphones to me. If you make the switch to wired, however, a whole new world opens up. And it tends to be much more affordable

And why? I have been using Momentum in and over ear headphones for years and am very satisfied. Especially True Wireless 4, the sound quality is insanely good.

I use the Sennheiser Momentum and I’m happy with it. For everyone here who is so pro-Shokz: the Momentum has a very solid mode where you can turn off the ANC.
